Had the privilege of stumbling upon a roadside mom and pop restaurant in the countryside near Hatyai. My Thai friend and I were the only ones in there. We ordered and waited with great anticipation when came along the husband. As casually as can be he sat with us and explained to us the magic of the food we were about to partake in. We listened in disbelief so after our lunch he invited us for a tour. We were blown away. This man had created a little paradise where every plant, bush, tree, insects, bats and bees he cared for played an interwoven role in self sustainably. We were treated to snack on fruits, herbs and even honey. God I miss Thailand. Thanks for bringing me back… until I come back. 🙏
You speak of gratitude and have a genuine love and respect for the people of Thailand. Man, that is so refreshing. Just discovered your channel and subscribed. Thanks, brother. I needed this. Peace and light...
I was stationed in Thailand in 1965-1966 and fell in love with the people and the country. I am now 78 years old and wish everyday that I had moved to Thailand when I retired in 2000, but my health prevented that, but I would give anything to have been able too retire in Thailand. I have been in 33 states in the U.S. and 28 countries and nothing compares to Thailand. My concern with you and your beautiful family is, the SNAKES. Do you have any problems with snakes? I saw so many deadly snakes while I was there (Korat, Ubon, Udorn, NKP) I worry about your families safety. Please reply.
You don't see that much danger snakes like cobra in the northern or northeast parts. Cobra snake mostly they were found in central region of Thailand and King cobra only found in southern.
Snakes have a bad reputation but they will leave you alone if you leave them alone :) you could watch some youtube channel like rupertsreptiles and davidsfeed to learn more about those fascinating creature!
As always an interesting and informative video . It's great to see real Thai cooking amazing to watch . The women work so hard amazing that your mother-in-law would think of doing all that on her own . Nice vlog as always stay safe
such humble people and so productive . And so thankful and harf working people. I as a native american envy them.We to get food from the land but due to wild fires and land slides and pollution etc . We cannot fish right now.
Hi Ryan - I am away from home on business, and bingeing on your vids. Provides a great option to commercial TV! I've visited Thailand 5 times or so on business, but I never get to see the side of life you are showing so vividly. Limited time - tight schedule - work priorities. I'm also not ashamed to say I was scared shitless the first trip, a fear of the unknown and a different culture. Your videos are convincing me I need to take the Mrs. with me to check out more of this beautiful country. Thanks for your gentle, sensitive, no-bullshit thoughts.
Thanks for sharing another great vlog, very interesting and enjoyable. I’m sure the authentic Thai food there is so much tastier than from our Thai restaurants here in Australia. What a great simple lifestyle, so honest . Found it humbling watching how everything is manual , especially by the women. What a privilege thank you Best Wishes and keep safe 👍
You had me at Restaurant! :) Great vlog and the cooking demos were on point- loved it. Thanks fr sharing your life on and off the farm - great stuff, Ryan! :)
2 years ago you and Damo so young 555 (have only seen you in 2023! Love pad khra pao and pad thai. Have Thai shop 50 meters away, the same Thai woman cookin for last 4-5 years. Amazing simple food . Yes I want some of those Batman pants in my size! Another great vlog Ryan and family PS. Summertime....your daddy's rich and your mamma good lookin, so hush baby dont you cry..
I came across your channel on recommendations looking up ASQ vlogs, then saw that you did a video with Johnny on his podcast.... great stuff, you look like you’re at peace back in Thailand!
I still have so many of your vlogs to watch. Loved the inside look into the restaurant’s kitchen. I’m back in Seattle until end of April. Gosh, I miss real Thai food!
Brilliant vlogg Ryan, i love the Thai way of living and doing things..i have just had my 2nd day round the pool area at Park Plaza..its going ok lol Thanks for sharing.
That's the thing I miss when on holidays in Thailand is the fresh cheap Thai food and had to watch the weight due to the snacking at different stands during the day,
You are right, having land is a blessing as you can grow your own stuff. We cannot grow rice, but the quest for the product with a higher margin is ongoing for any Thai farmer who has to live from this income. Unfortunately, it produces the price up, price down cycles too when the farmers see the price of a specific crop goes up, all plant it, but by the time they harvest there is surplus on the market and the price drops, often to a level it is no longer economically viable. One has to find its niches which need several years of lead up time. Thank you very much for this insight on your farm. I did see, you started to build a canopy over your water tanks to shade them. Good decision.
I don't waste a grain of rice when I have my meals. Because we were taught by our grandparents that farmers put in a lot of effort and sweat when growing them.
gotta say - this channel is way kinder, nicer, and more authentic than so many of the farang wankers who make dreadful in-country channels... thanks for being you.
Did rice last year it back breaking but rewarding same time . I miss Thailand but hopping to get back to my soon video calls not enough. Love watching your Channel, thank you keep it up. Angus
So great mate, now i will have time to chill with your videos, i just arrived to Thailand asq hotel yesterday! 😀In 2 weeks i will be our hopefully and go and go enjoy life😊
Nice video again. I saw a house i recognise in ban nong hin... you guys live very close to my wife,s familie ... There,s a lot to explore in that region .... i know because i did drive alot on a small motobike Overthere. Buriram is nice.
I enjoy watching your lifestyle. Simple. Slow paced. Great food. Beautiful family. Now if you could rock out with the saxophone piece from Money by Pink Floyd. Cheers!
Good saying about how those people appreciate their land in the things they do have I wish people in the United States have that kind of same mentality can't wait to go back to Thailand truck driver Lonnie out here loving your videos I love Thailand
some People in the US Countryside still have that mentality and appreciation for their Land. They are called Rednecks, Trumpsters or other Slurs by the Media
@@johnnylangen2839 I was just referring to people in general about them not appreciating a lot of things they have I know there's a lot of farmers who love their land out here in the US and they do work hard to keep their land and their crops
I used to like eating bags of pork scratchings when I was younger...I must say the food looks really nice, when the lockdown ends I must see if there is a thai restaurant in Manchester. Only came across your channel a day or two ago, liking the content I have seen.
Firts time I have watched your vlogs,very good to see a person putting all things about living on a farm with your family, hope to watch many more, take care and all the best, from steve in the uk.
Found this channel...got hooked...Lovely family,simple and happy life.. What about the health care system there? I heard it's great...thank you for this vlog...love rice and Thai food....
Wow, what a lot of hard work for mum to do on her own !! Thanks for the insight Ryan 👍.. Is all the rice stored for use , or is any sold ? Great vlog mate 👍👍👍
Hey guys love your videos natural and so happy comments that are negative to you are people who need to get a life as they envy your hapinessI period I to now living in Thailand for 12 mths now from Australia have Beautiful Thai wife happy travel also as able now with covid restrictions easing live in Prangku Sisaket rice farming comunity. Keep them videos coming Both your personality compliment your efforts. Take care Terry Ammy 😀😁😊👍👍👍
nice food in aunties restaurant - some of the best meals in thailand are in those local places i only eat thai food when i go on vacation there, no western food will pass my mouth which is sometimes difficult great to see the foreman out helping the slaves with the rice, the yield loos smaller than i imagined from the amount of area planted - i wont be looking at my rice in the same way again - gutted it wasnt drying on the roads - always amazing to see the roads covered at rice harvest time. i hope you are enjoying the extra time you are no getting with su familia
Your online too?! Editing?! haha..Thank you. Still here In Thailand, you helped me with a form I forgot about on your flight/ASQ vlog, I arrived a week after you. Thank you again. Would love to visit with my 8 year old daughter. Fantastic channel, thank you to you and your lovely family for sharing your experiences... this is what life should be like.
I think Thailand was one of my favorite countries. Phucket and the Phi Phi Islands I think. Long time ago. Before tsunami. I remember where I was when the news came on to report it. I say a prayer.
Phet nik noy khon gohoke lol. I wondered about your use of Thai in the first video I watched of you, seems you poot pasat Thai Di.... great job integrating into the community there. I am not so lucky it seems in the community I live in, cultural boundaries are most difficult to break here, I am happy for you sir!
the simple life is all i need. but now thailand is well developing and ppl need more money to live up to the growing economy in big cities like Bangkok. since I moved here to BKK i found ppl in countrysides are more sincere and generous. i still miss my lovely childhood back home in Phichit where i grew up. sorry i feel kinda homesick now. and i miss my dad so much
Forgive my ignorance but how much rice is kept and how much is sold each harvest? How is it distributed amongst family and is it shared with the extended community?
It makes my heart sad I am not in Thailand eating this dish this year. Damn Covid and all. This is one of my favorite Thai dishes. I like it best with a fried egg. Impossible to get fresh Thai basil in Wyoming most of the time and impossible in the winter. "". Sounds familiar in my house also. We have to drive 883 km round trip to Denver to get Asian food and many times they don't even have decent basil. One trip in three I can find a decent papaya for Som Tom.
Hi thank you for your great videos I always look forward to watching. Would it be possible if you left the translation on the bottom of screen for a couple more seconds.

Jim is never late to live your dream !!!! You can come to thailand
You don't see that much danger snakes like cobra in the northern or northeast parts. Cobra snake mostly they were found in central region of Thailand and King cobra only found in southern.
Never stop dreaming. Hope you get to Thailand one day. Good luck with your health👍
Jim don’t stop your dream come as soon oneday 😊

I am so happy to see your vlogs everyday. Sooo destressing. God bless you and your family!
This is my life when I was a kid. we grew our rice and I helped my parents did farm rice. Unluckily My dad sold our farm because of poor and dept. 😢
I have missed getting real Thai food this year
Closest thing to the authentic taste I have found is £20-£30 a dish!
God I miss Thailand!
Easy to make it man
As always an interesting and informative video . It's great to see real Thai cooking amazing to watch . The women work so hard amazing that your mother-in-law would think of doing all that on her own . Nice vlog as always stay safe
I am fascinated by the simple, healthy life your family lives all my blessings to you all. Oh and the places you travel to are dreamlike
such humble people and so productive . And so thankful and harf working people. I as a native american envy them.We to get food from the land but due to wild fires and land slides and pollution etc . We cannot fish right now.
Nice one mate! You've captured everything about Thailand's rural life in a short video.
Wonderful mate loved the harvesting
Your face in the restaurant was like like a kid in sweet shop

Those meals look amazing!!! 😍😍
All of that food looks delicious. Can often pay 10 times more for the same dish in a tourist area and won't be anywhere near as nice as that stuff!
I don't waste a grain of rice when I have my meals. Because we were taught by our grandparents that farmers put in a lot of effort and sweat when growing them.
gotta say - this channel is way kinder, nicer, and more authentic than so many of the farang wankers who make dreadful in-country channels... thanks for being you.
👍👍👍Same for me as well!
Kung speaks Thai very clearly. You probably love Thailand, right? I watched your clip and I was happy too.👍😊👍
Late King Rama9 was also play saxophone and wrote many songs.
It's pretty and comfortable to see u and your daily family Life every day 🇨🇰🇪🇸👏,👏👏🇹🇭🙏
Beautiful and simple life's.......you guys make me miss Thailand so much
🙏😁🇹🇭🙌
So happy , I love your channel, real life and peaceful 😁

So great mate, now i will have time to chill with your videos, i just arrived to Thailand asq hotel yesterday! 😀In 2 weeks i will be our hopefully and go and go enjoy life😊
So fresh! Not like big restaurants who purchase bulk from elsewhere and frozen meats and seafoods.
The food at the resteraunt looked totaly yummy. The oart relating to the rice on the farm, I found to be really relaxing, so thank you for sharing
Thanks for watching Andrew and supporting the channel, yes I was very lucky to get this insight 🙏
Damo น่ารักมาก. If not for Covid (stuck in the States) I’d be admiring your video from second home in Phrae.
Nice video again. I saw a house i recognise in ban nong hin... you guys live very close to my wife,s familie ...
There,s a lot to explore in that region .... i know because i did

Overthere. Buriram is nice.
I enjoy watching your lifestyle. Simple. Slow paced. Great food. Beautiful family. Now if you could rock out with the saxophone piece from Money by Pink Floyd. Cheers!
You so lucky enjoy your life

Why should People not like Thailand ?
Are you a Moron by any Chance ?
Living off the land just cant get any better mate .Plus top thai food 👍

Cheers Kris!
My ladies parents work hard, between raising grandchildren & farming it's hard graft
Nice work mate🙏🌾☀️🇹🇭
I used to like eating bags of pork scratchings when I was younger...I must say the food looks really nice, when the lockdown ends I must see if there is a thai restaurant in Manchester.
Only came across your channel a day or two ago, liking the content I have seen.
There are a few Thai restaurants in Manchester, and you can buy bags of freshly cooked pork scratchings in Oldham market
วิถีน่ารักมากๆคะ
You won the lottery and found Paradise! Better than money & fancy stuff , True Happiness! Dream Life 🙏🙏🙏

I can relate to ur video,cause I farm to make a living here in Cambodia..I'm from America.
Another great video. my sweetheart is having to do the harvest alone
It's refreshing to see a video which isn't a tourist holiday video for a change. Where about are you living in Thailand.
Buriram 🙏
ya man love it look forward to your vids peace Danny🏄👣🐒
Cheers Danny 🙏😊
Another Fantastic video. I'm hungry now!
Beautiful video.
Thank you very much!
Good idea to make videos less often. This one seemed to flow better, interesting footage and interview in the restaurant .
I think Thailand was one of my favorite countries. Phucket and the Phi Phi Islands I think. Long time ago. Before tsunami. I remember where I was when the news came on to report it. I say a prayer.
Happy life
Love the place
Easy to make pat krapow at home in the us if you buy krapow leaves at a local asia market.
I enjoyed that thanks mate
Oh! you made me missed my hometown (home sweet home),Krasang,Buriram.
Lovely vlog! Cheers bro! I am Thai. :)
This was a terrible idea to watch in the morning considering I fast for the first 5 hours, so much salivation hahaha Looks soooooooo good brother

Another great vlog. Loved it. Nice to see the rice bagging. I can remember doing it too. It is hard work!!
HNY to you all 👍😎
Beautiful live in rural
Forgive my ignorance but how much rice is kept and how much is sold each harvest?
How is it distributed amongst family and is it shared with the extended community?
🙏🇹🇭🙏. Great insight to the true Thailand
Cheers Macca 🙏

Wow Ryan I too love the local thai restaurant's they are much tastier and cheaper
Lovely vid
